Thanks for your insight! But knowing Sepp Blatter's domicile is irrelevant (as it's not the domicile or citizenship that is relevant in taking action in Tort law).
Whether it is actionable on not depends on where the 'wrong' is committed, performed or occurred and not the citizenship/domicile etc of that individual. The law can also be different if the tort offence is committed in High Seas for example!
My suspicion is there is similar or equivalent (if not identical) law in other jurisdictions in Europe.
